When Nadia Bartel shares a photo of her outfit on Instagram, one thing is inevitable: her followers will swoon over it.
The Melbourne-based Chronicles of Nadia blogger has an immaculate sense of style — and is an actual stylist — so this doesn’t come as a surprise.
However, along with the usual flurry of compliments, Bartel’s latest outfit post has also prompted a little… concern from her fans. And oddly enough, it’s all to do with her feet.
Before attending the Carji Greeves Medal with her AFL star (and newly clean-shaven) husband Jimmy Bartel last night, she snapped a quick shot of her gorgeous white Alex Perry dress, Giuseppe Zanotti metallic heels and YSL bag.
A number of her 345,000 Instagram commenters were clearly under the impression the mum of one’s strappy shoes might be a little painful on her toes.
“Oh my god you poor thing, doesn’t that hurt?” one wrote.
“Hope u have backup shoes,” another joked.
You know you’ve made it when perfect strangers concern themselves with the physical wellbeing of your toes.
The thing is, if the 31-year-old was in any measure of discomfort, you wouldn’t know it from the photos she shared throughout the night.
In each one she looks serene and happy — not a hint of that telltale ‘Oh God, I can’t feel my feet, knew I should have worn my thongs instead‘ grimace to be seen.
And besides, who could feel anything less than fabulous in a dress with structured shoulders and sleeves like that?
As one commenter put it, “I have been crushing on this [look] all day.”
Yep, same here, to be quite honest.

What a ridiculous woman. Who would wear that in the name of fashion. Can't she see/feel that they obviously don't fit. I don't know how she can even walk in them.
Those ladies look so fake. Especially the one holding her tummy and fake smiling 'cause she's preggers and needs to let everyone know that's the reason she's chunky.
Nadia and that Judd woman remind me of an insect.
I used to wonder why pregnant women held their tummies too - until I became pregnant and have realised that it's damned comfortable on your growing belly to rest your hand there, and also it's nice to do it when baby moves, you get a closer feeling.
